MILL CREEK PARK

SMITHVILLE MANSION, BURLINGTON CO., August 14, 1993. Bartonia.


At Mill Creek Park in Willingboro, high water levels kept us from fully exploring the intertidal zone, but we did find

Lobelia chinensis (a rapidly-spreading adventive, in bloom at the high tide line on a sandy shore)
Eleocharis erythropoda
Lycopus rubellus
Helenium autumnale

Upland woods nearby had
Physocarpus opulifolius
Lycopodium obscurum -- an unusually large stand

The shores of a small, stagnant pond produced:

Eclipta prostrata (yerba-de-tajo)
Hypericum mutilum
Veronica anagallis-aquatica
